In this week's show, Dr. Bray tackles the difficult issue of how to digitally declutter your life. Using research from Cal Newport and his three-step plan Dr. Bray breaks down the steps to organize and get control of your digital life.

Cal Newport's three-step digital declutter plan is designed to help individuals regain control over their digital lives and create a healthier relationship with technology. The plan consists of three key steps: the first is to take a break from optional digital technologies for a defined period of time, usually 30 days. This break allows individuals to reflect on their digital habits and identify which technologies truly add value to their lives.

The second step involves reintroducing digital tools selectively, based on the assessment made during the break. By intentionally choosing which technologies to reintegrate, individuals can ensure that their digital usage aligns with their values and goals.

Lastly, the third step encourages individuals to establish practices and rules to maintain a healthy digital lifestyle, such as setting boundaries on screen time and utilizing digital tools purposefully rather than mindlessly. This three-step process provides a framework for individuals to reset their digital habits and find a balance that enhances their well-being and productivity.
